Problem is, many many end users won't know their computer has been 
hacked necessarily.  They might now its broken:) it won't connect, 
what's invalid media type:), or where did my winders go!

But many people have no idea anything has happened.  Look at how much 
code red type activity is still happening.

were designed to stop this type of thing.
